TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING BULLETIN
 
HERE IS THE LATEST TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING BULLETIN ISSUED
BY THE HONG KONG OBSERVATORY.
 
THE STANDBY SIGNAL, NO. 1 IS IN FORCE.
 
AT NOON, TROPICAL STORM LUPIT WAS ESTIMATED TO BE ABOUT 190
KILOMETRES EAST-SOUTHEAST OF HONG KONG (NEAR 21.4 DEGREES
NORTH 115.7 DEGREES EAST) AND IS FORECAST TO MOVE
EAST-NORTHEAST AND THEN TRACK NORTHEAST LATER AT ABOUT 10
KILOMETRES PER HOUR ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS OF GUANGDONG.

 

BASED ON THE PRESENT FORECAST TRACK, LUPIT WILL MOVE
GRADUALLY AWAY FROM HONG KONG. WHEN LUPIT NO LONGER POSES A
THREAT TO THE TERRITORY, THE OBSERVATORY WILL CANCEL ALL
THE TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING SIGNALS. 
 
THE RAINBANDS ASSOCIATED WITH LUPIT AND THE SOUTHWEST
MONSOON WILL OCCASIONALLY BRING SHOWERS AND SQUALLS TO HONG
KONG IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. THERE WILL ALSO BE SWELLS.
THE PUBLIC SHOULD REMAIN ON THE ALERT.
